The brick kiln owners came forward to support the education of migrant children living in brick kilns in and around Ranga Reddy district. This year around 700 children are identified through a survey conducted by Aide et Action who will be attending worksite schools run by brick kiln owners. The initiative was started as a followup of \u2018Operation Smile\u2019 conducted by Rachakonda Police Commissionarate in 2017 to provide education to children who otherwise end up working as labor in brick kilns.<\/p>\n
After successful demonstration of the Worksite School initiative in 2017, the partnership between Rachakonda Police Commissionerate, District Administration, Aide et Action international and brick kiln owners is growing strong and ensuring education & child care to migrant children. The initiative has succeeded in making the brick kilns free from child labour.<\/p>\n
Mahesh Bhagwat, IPS, Commissioner Rachakonda Police Commissionerate and a well known crusader for combating human trafficking and who has been bestowed with prestigious national and international award said \u201dEducation can be a game changer for the disadvantaged children provided they are given a level playing ground\u201d. He further says, \u201cIt was a huge challenge for him and his team to find out a best answer to the problems of rescued child labour from brick kilns. Worksite School was the perfect answer in providing education for interstate children and campaigning for elimination of child labour in brick kilns.He personally lauded District Collector Yadadri Bhongir Anita Ramchandran IAS & District Collector Rangareddy for their whole hearted support to work site school project and ensuing Mid day meal scheme & 1 Rs KG Rice project extended for school children & their parents.<\/p>\n
Umi Daniel, Director \u2013 Migration & Education, Aide et Action South Asia \u201cThis is my third year under the leadership of Mr Mahesh Bhagawat. This is a unique model in India. Children are coming all the way from Odisha and studying here. We are ensuring that all these children continue their education back in Odisha after the end of migration season. I appreciate all the owners, especially Rajender Reddy, President \u2013 Telangana Brick kiln Owners Association.\u201d<\/p>\n
Manchi Reddy Kishan Reddy, MLA \u2013 \u201cI am very happy that migrant children from Odisha are able to access education in our state. I appreciate Mahesh Bhagawat, IPS garu for his efforts. As we are providing education to the Odia children, similarly we need to ensure that other states also provide education to children from Telangana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
